The messages also reveal a member of the group Lawyers for Israel calling Lattouf’s lawyer Josh Bornstein, who is Jewish, a “traiter”.

It's hilariously absurd that everyone is just fine with religious extremists attacking our democratic institutions like this. How would everyone feel about Isis establishing hostile espionage cells in Australia with a view to attacking journalists. Religious people are far too dangerous to be trusted with anything remotely important.

Nobody is fine with it. That's why its news.

Article is paywalled.

Are the names of these scum visible? Is there any way for us to start campaigning for them to lose their licenses to practice law?

Anyone got a template letter for informing employers about the actions of employees outside of work and their reflection on the company?

It seems to me like the issue here isn't that these lawyers wrote letters, but whether the ABC folded to pressure instead of following their own policies, and whether information was leaked from the ABC.

I'd say there's something wrong with these workers of our legal system, clandestinely meeting together to harass workers for holding political views and terrorising public institutions to conform to their views.
